Poetic Skeletons Poem by Sachidananda Panda

A poet is, a mythical 'Tiresias'
To stand between poles,
Like a seasonal bird singing,
Tunes of changing winds,
A visionary, finding reason to smile,
From the gross piles
Of grinding unease,
Cautioning the hidden risks
Of spurious smiles
While disseminating the dictums
Of realism and dream

A unique character between
The top and tail-ends
Roaming amidst
The oblivion and the abyss
Collecting the grains of sustenance
On common lexis
Inspiring, promoting and imbibing
Life's ostensible elements
Or unheard intricacies
Through the letters of myriad woes
And axioms, of different hues
All carefully nurtured
As an immortal blend
Of both grim and glees
To become Skeletons Of his poetries.
